Abstract: A method of making and using a multifunction printer comprising forming a vertical hinge mechanism in a first end of a printer's cleanout member. A second portion of the hinge mechanism is formed as a hole in a housing of the printer for coupling with the first portion. A third portion of the hinge mechanism is formed as a hole in a scanner portion of the printer also for coupling with the first portion. The cleanout member pivots about the vertical rotational axis formed by the hinge mechanism.

Abstract: An inkjet printhead assembly comprising an array of nozzles fed by a corresponding ink inlet. An ink chamber corresponding to the array of nozzles is fluidly connected to the ink inlet. An air extraction chamber includes an air chamber, a one-way relief valve having an open position that allows venting of the air chamber to ambient, and a closed position that does not allow venting of the air chamber to ambient. A piston in the form of a disk forces air to be vented from the air chamber through the one-way relief valve in its open position. It also applies a reduced air pressure to a membrane while the one-way relief valve is in its closed position.
